My friend gave me a link to a website, which I foolishly clicked on without looking at. It brought me to this website for a hack for some sort of game that I had never seen. I closed out of it without clicking anything on the actual website and didn’t download anything on it. Now whenever I hit “8” on my keyboard, it crudely types this: “8 ball poo,l hackk” I’ve tried scanning for viruses and removing them, and that seems to not have an effect on the issue.
